Two top Republicans, both originally pro-Trump, confirm the US attacked Spain using Morocco as a proxy.
US paid Morocco at least $40M two weeks before the Ceuta breach. People were reportedly lured into participating through social media, while the breach was amplified as a "migrant invasion" online by US, Israeli and Russian disinformation and disruption networks, and compromised media networks and politicians on right wing legacy media.
Elon Musk spent $290 million to elect Trump.
His investment worked. He is now $438 billion richer.
Now, he wants to buy Congress by spending $100 million to keep Republicans in control.
We must fight oligarchy. Defeat Musk. Preserve democracy.
Anyone meeting with Netanyahu on friendly terms after the ICC issued an arrest warrant for him over war crimes and crimes against humanity has no place in government, in any country and at any capacity. Vote them out.
"Money laundering." That is the reason Capital One gave a federal court on Friday for closing the Trump Organization's 300 bank accounts, after Trump sued claiming he was dropped for being conservative.
He started this fight. The bank just put those two words next to his family business, on the record.
As reported by Reuters and confirmed by CNBC and NBC News, here is how Trump walked into this. In March 2021, weeks after the January 6 riot, Capital One notified the Trump Organization it was closing more than 300 accounts holding millions of dollars.
In March 2025, the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust and Eric Trump sued in Florida, claiming the bank "debanked" them out of "woke" beliefs and a desire to distance itself from Trump after the Capitol attack.
Trump signed an executive order in 2025 barring banks from denying service over politics or religion, and sued JPMorgan Chase over the same claim in January.
Then Capital One responded, and the response is the story. In its Friday filing, the bank stated that "documents and Plaintiffs' own allegations make clear that Capital One closed Plaintiffs' accounts for anti-money laundering reasons."
Reuters noted this is the first time any bank has formally tied money-laundering concerns to the president's family business. Trump asked a court why the bank left him.
While Capital One has not directly accused the Trump Organization of laundering money, the bank said its anti-money-laundering compliance unit is who decided to close the accounts.
For a man who built a whole grievance campaign around being persecuted for his beliefs, the optics are suspicious. It takes the story out of the culture war and puts it into a compliance file.
Trump wanted the world to hear that a bank punished him for being conservative. Instead he got a bank to stand up in federal court and say its money-laundering team wanted his accounts closed.

Last week we held a congressional hearing in Houston to investigate the ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. I struggle these days for words that adequately describe the injustice we're seeing, promise accountability and offer some measure of healing for families. There are no right words, but these were mine for Lorenzo's sons last week. @RepSylviaGarcia@HispanicCaucus@HomelandDems
STATEMENT from Emily Moreno Spokesman Stefan Mychajliw:
“It is shameful that Max Miller decided to go on a bizarre and lie-filled rant about his ex-wife to desperately try to save his political career. There is a documented trove of evidence that Miller has a history of violent and dangerous behavior and no amount of victim shaming will change that. It is despicable and abhorrent that Miller lied on an unhinged and humiliating video for their daughter to watch one day. No loving parent would have ever used their daughter as a PR pawn to save their own political career. Miller can lie and spin on X, but he cannot do so under oath in a court of law. We are confident that justice will prevail in court.”
Susan Collins deserves to lose her Senate seat for a million different reasons but voting to confirm this dangerous lunatic as HHS Secretary needs to be right at the top.
@TheTNHoller@AubuchonRebecca@Jim_Jordan@kasie Jim Jordan standby while coaches raped his wrestlers. Why should we be surprised that he won't condemn Max Miller for assaulting his wife?
🚨 NEWS: In a new court filing, Capital One says Donald Trump’s accounts were closed in 2021 after months of analysis by its anti-money laundering (AML) professionals, not because of politics, as Trump has long claimed.
The bank says its AML team conducted a careful review that identified suspicious transaction patterns and made the decision under federal anti-money laundering obligations.
